NARS | Pure Radiant Tinted Moisturizer SPF 30/PA+++

Kess

Perfect!

I bought this in the lightest shade (I wear 1N2 in double wear) and it’s perfect. Warms my skin just a little. It’s got a great light/medium coverage, doesn’t slide off through the day and leaves a beautiful glowy finish on my dry skin, also SPF 30!! The best tinted moisturiser I’ve tried!

Lovely product

This is a lovely tinted moisturiser which still gives good coverage. Goes on great, Really recommend it! Last all day too.

Gigi

Still the absolute best

I went through two tubes of Nars tinted moisturiser is 2018/19 and then I had some acne problems (unrelated) so I switched to something higher coverage. Acne issues are sorted now so I repurchased this tinted moisturiser and WOW. Remembering how much I love it! I love how it lets your own skin shine through but adds a beautiful glowy radiance, it’s super quick and easy to apply, and it has a good level of SPF too. I have combination skin so add a little powder to T zone and it has great lasting power. A dream product!

Magic!

Suitable for my oily skin, magic!

Glowing skin

Makeup for face

This product did not disappoint. Blended in beautifully to my skin and looks very natural, also has a healthy sheen to it. I liked it very much.

Good

Nice product

Look no further

This tinted moisturiser has everything! Glides on beautifully, perfect coverage. Can be built up if necessary. My skin just better !!

Ilpo

Looks good on skin and lasts the whole day but applying is a little hard

Charlotte M

Gorgeous.

I always get compliments about my skin when wearing this. Lovely gloss finish, particularly for aging skin. You might need expert help in a store though to choose the right shade for you as there's a lot! Definitely recommend.

LP

believe the hype! Amazing

I am so glad i purchased this as I love it. It feels lovely on and blends beautifully with a brush. Its more light a light foundation which is perfect as ive stopped wearing makeup on a day to basis so for nights out where I normally wouldve worn a heavy foundation I now use this. Ive also bought other nars products since this as I was so impressed!

Didn't work for me

Sadly this wasn't right for me. Although the shade was fine and I liked the texture and light scent, my skin was very unhappy with it and it caused my first breakout in 35 years. Back to searching for the right product.

Star

I love this，worth buying!!

I f found a foundation that exactly matches my skin tone～finally~I’m asian more tan use-annapuran. The product make me not feel like wearing a mask ～ Improve uneven skin tone，Just like applying lotion easily ,feel comfortable perfect！

Emma

Go to for years

Been using for years and I always get so many compliments on my makeup. Would say it's buildable coverage, so good for people who are tying to move away from foundation

Veronique

Great breathable texture and coverage

Highly recommended to ladies who are looking for tinted moisturiser that will give nice coverage and radiant look. Breathable texture is excellent for those, like me, has dry skin, while high quality pigment gives natural look and matches perfectly to (any) skin tone.

Lisa, 34 yrs old

Smooth & covered finish

I purchased this product as an alternative to wearing foundation. It gives a good coverage as the coverage is buildable. The colour is a great match.

Chaya

NARS Cuzco: Beautiful!

I've been trying to find a tinted moisturiser that blends well, lasts all day and matches my skin tone (medium, peach and yellow undertone). The coverage for this is lovely, it goes on nicely and I usually set it with a bit of powder under my eyes and across my T-zone as I've got oily skin. A little goes a long way!

LW

Perfect no make up look

I was debating whether to go for this or Laura Mercier but the reviews were good, so went for it. I had to guess my colour as I’d never bought this product before and in lockdown but guessed right! Alaska ..Lovely consistency, perfect colour. I hardly wear much foundation as my skin is generally good but this adds a beautiful light smooth glowing coverage, great around the eyes too! I love it!

Julija

Not the best

I have normal/combination skin but it gets so shiny in a couple of hours on me, although i really like the natural "my skin but better" look it gives me.

Safiyah

Amazing

I normally use the radiant long wear foundation in shade Stromboli, decided to try this out for summer - has amazing buildable coverage considering it’s a tinted moisturiser, I got the shade st moritz which is a very close match! Haven’t tested longevity yet but setting it with powder will definitely help make it long lasting.

Karolina

Amjad

Great

I loved the consistency of this but I won't call it a tinted moisturizer cause it's a little bit thick

Vicky - Cult Beauty Staff

Dewy, fresh-looking skin

I always struggled to find base products that wouldn’t aggravate my super sensitive skin until I tried this. I can wear this every day knowing it won’t cause any breakouts or rashes. I love how it evens out my skin tone without feeling heavy or cakey – that being said, it is very dewy and can get a little shiny as the days goes on which is something to bear in mind. If you prefer a fuller coverage or a matte look, this probably isn’t for you! Although it is a little expensive, you get 50ml which lasts a long time. I’m just coming to the end of mine which I’ve had for 6 months and used everyday.

Kate

My everyday saviour

This stuff is amazing. First time I wore it to work, my boss asked me why I looked like I'd been on holiday (it was the middle of the week). I use it as my daily base with concealer/spots of foundation blended in on areas I need more coverage. With a light layer of primer under and light dusting of powder on top to set, I find it lasts all day - light coverage, a nice glow, very natural look for every day. I'm in love! It's super creamy and goes on like a dream. Highly recommend.

Fiona

Unbelievable!

By far the make up product I've used. It goes on easily and is flawless. Not one for those who prefer a matte complexion. I rarely use foundation anymore as this is so much better! Perfect coverage! and SPF 30 is such a bonus. Highly highly recommend!

Kezza

Love, love, love!

Lovely and lightweight but still offering decent coverage considering it’s a tinted moisturiser. Just had another baby so don’t really have time for usual slap routine! This has been a great timesaver for a natural look and leaves skin feeling lovely. Also looks really good considering I normally have problem/sensitive skin. Ideal to use as a base if needed under some foundation or also great on its own. Will definitely purchase again!

J

Lovely product but not for me

Lovely product and texture but unfortunately I don't find it lasts on my face and it gets very shiny. I have used various primers underneath it and always set with a loose powder but nothing seems to work. I love my sheer glow which lasts really well, but I feel my skin is too oily for the tinted moisturiser.

F

the best thing I've ever tried

I like my full coverage foundations so when a friend recommended this to me I was a bit meh about it BUT THIS LADIES AND GENTLEMEN'S WAS THE BEST THING I'VE EVER TRIED IN MY ENTIRE LIFEEE covers everything , gives your face the best glow like you have a filter on your face I have oily/combo skin so the fact that something makes me look glowy without making me greasy is an amazing thing I would recommend this product to everyone !

Lala

Great option for beginners/no makeup makeup looks

This tinted moisturiser is perfect for those of us who hate foundation. As a makeup beginner, I love the formula, coverage and natural, silky look this provides. My only qualm with the product is that it rubs off easily onto my clothes and hands (anything that comes in contact). Otherwise a beautiful comfortable base.

Denise

Best tinted moisturizer ever

Lightweight, beautifully natural and skin-like with a healthy dose of pigment - what more could you ask for? This is my favourite tinted base product ever! It isn't moisturizing or hydrating for my dehydrated combination skin and I live in hot, humid Singapore. That said, the NARS pure radiant tinted moisturizer looks and stays incredible throughout the day so long as I prep my skin well. I love using this over the Becca backlight priming filter! #Alaska is perfect for my light-medium neutral olive complexion.

Jennie

The perfect foundation

This is one of my all-time favorites. It is light, so it covers what I want, but doesn't look caked on. I'm very happy with the SPF as well. I have combination skin and am as pale as you can get and I wear the shade Finland.

Nurika

My fav

Light, good for acne prone skin. Makes you look more polished :)

Orsolya

The true "your skin but better"

I tried so many tinted moisturisers and radiant foundations with SPF, but so far this is the one and only really "your skin but better" stuff. It's hydrating, easy to apply and it's quite long wearing too. The coverage is light (my freckles and aging spots show through), but it's buildable. (I'm MAC NW20/NC20 and the shade Groenland is perfect for me.)

Violetta

Amazing!

A perfect tinted moisturiser with SPF to use after your normal skincare routine. (doesn't substitute your daily moisturiser!). You need just small drops to cover all your face. It's light and easy to absorb. Fantastic!

Lizzy

Perfect tinted moisturiser

This is by no means heavy cover but it is slightly more than a tinted moisturiser. Being slightly older, some foundations can make me look older but this covers just enough to make me feel confident enough to face the world but not leave me with that awful full foundation feel. It doesn’t give me flawless skin, but it definitely makes me look like I have less flaws. Doesn’t noticeably sit in pores or wrinkles, it’s me but on a good day.

Adriana

Amazing

This stuff is brilliant 10/10

francesca

Fantastic product for sheer coverage

I absolutely adore this product. It does not cling on to dry patches, it is literally invisible on the skin but it is very effective at creating a uniform tint. It is nice and hydrating, it pairs well with concealer and powders, and has a very light scent that lasts seconds. A truly great product for those seeking sheer coverage and a natural look.

Roo

Love

I never liked wearing foundation because I don't like the heaviness...I indulged in Armani luminous silk a while back and though I loved the finish it was still very much a foundation. I gave up after the Armani and just stuck to concealers....but I'm so glad I bought this. The finish is absolutely beautiful. I have Asian skin and I use shade st Moritz and it's perfect. I look so healthy and I have actually seen an improvement in my skin!

Psy

Fabulous

I was singing from the rooftops when I found out Cult beauty started to stock one of my favourite brands. I have been a huge fan of Nars for a long time - probably because they were among one of the few brands that catered to people of colour. Obviously nowadays that’s changed and a lot more brands cater to all types of skin tones, but Nars will always remain no.1 for me. The colour range for the foundations are spot on and an exact match for me. Pure radiant tinted moisturiser is amazing, smoothing out imperfections without heavy coverage - giving a no make-up look. Love, love love it. As with the previous reviewer I usually wear sheer glow foundation, but wanted something lighter for the summer months. This is perfect and really hydrating. Thank you Cult Beauty for finally bringing this brand into your portfolio. All we need are the amazing eyeshadows and I’ll be made up (pun intended)!

Gemma

Wonderful

Spent years looking for a foundation, always reverted to fuller coverage, however, after finding this would never go back, I am 41 and since using this had so many comments on my skin.

alison

Foundation rather than a tinted moisturiser

Looking for a moisturiser with SFP in it and hoping I could use this in the same way. Unfortunately it is a chore to apply and blend and felt like a mask. I dislike foundation for this very reason. Maybe the shade isn't perfect (difficulty of guessing with internet purchase despite using NARS website interactive) and the product did highlight rather than conceal lines/pores. 3 stars as its an ok foundation but thats not what I bought it for.

Katie

Love this

I normally wear full coverage foundation whenever I wear makeup and with lockdown, I wanted something not so heavy but that looks nicer than a bare face! I love so much it has quite good coverage but at the same time is so sheer it just looks like skin I literally rub it in like a moisturiser and I’m good to go! I got the shade St Moritz (I think that’s what it’s called) and it’s perfect for when I’ve got a bit of fake tan on.

NE

Very Nice

its a very good product, just gives evens your face and gives it a nice glow, I like it very much

Ella - Cult Beauty Staff

Perfection.

The foundation I used to wear every single day and have done for the past 3 years has been kicked to the curb after trying this! (I loved my old foundation and wasn't even looking to replace it, I just saw so many people raving about this and thought I'd give it a go). The texture is super creamy and light and melts into my skin. It gives the most beautiful silky finish and stays on my super oily skin all day long. The SPF is a massive bonus and has not broken me out. My new holy grail product.

Clarabelle

Feels Divine

Although this is a tinted moisturiser, it gives enough coverage to make one's skin appear near perfect.

AS

I LOVED it but toxic...

I loved this cream so much but I don't love all the ingredients. I wish they could find a way to make it clean.

Shaunie

Not for me

This didn't work for me at all, it creased and in oiler places on my face it just sat on top and moved around. Gutted that this didn't work for me as the reviews were amazing.

DLo1

I'll never use anything else

Had never used this product before but is it by far the best foundation I've used. I have delicate very fair skin, the colour is perfect and leaves my skin bright and dewy. Love it!

Tash

Over and above expectations

Perfect for a fresh, dewy look and ideal in hot weather; leaps and bounds ahead of anything else I've tried.

VP

Second face!

I have been looking for something that isn't as heavy as a full coverage foundation, but does still cover enough and is buildable. THIS IS IT! It glides on so nicely and literally creates like a second face and gives me an even skin tone. It gives a lovely glow and makes me look so fresh. It also lasts on my face all day and doesn't leave patches, but still removes easily. This gives a great natural look, as if I have super good skin. It is also buildable for more cover. However, if you look for a proper foundation then I don't think it builds that much. I use RMS concealer for those parts.

Cez - 26

I was pleasantly surprised

I'm definitely more of a full-coverage foundation girl, but for my up-and-coming holiday, I thought a tinted moisturiser would be better for the heat... I'm actually really loving it. It's so lightweight but buildable. Spreads evenly over the face without going orange around the eyebrows or hairline... I'd actually say my skin looked better after a few hours of it being applied!

NL

Fresh faced, covered look

Perfect balance for me. Offers a good but light coverage with a dewy glow. Have recommended to many and this will now be my go tinted moisturizer.

AS

A must-have

A must-have if you’d like to give your skin a plumped, fresh look. It moisturises beautifully, evens my skin tone whilst giving it a touch of colour. Great thin texture. Lasts all day but easy to remove. I never wear foundation and this to me is the perfect alternative.

Beth

AMAZING

I was worried that this would potentially break my skin out as I have a combination/oily skin type, but NO! It’s amazing! The coverage is great for a tinted moisturiser and feels lovely on the skin.

Natalie

My favourite base!

This is my new absolute favourite base product! This is one of the only foundation-type products I have ever used that doesn't cling to my dry patches, yet it still doesn't look greasy! I also find it lasts a long time on the skin and provides a nice, light coverage which can be touched up with concealer! Wish I bought this sooner, I will definitely repurchase when I run out!

Tatyana

Amazing!

I bought it after I used new version of Laura Mercier tinted moisturizer and now I can say what I finally found that I'm lookin for for my dry skin for summer time. I love it in all: coverage, undertone (I bought Finland, its similar to MAC NC 15-20), moisturizing!, smell, long-lasting and SPF! Thanks to Nars! Really great product!

LP

WOW!

I thought I would try this as the reviews were really good and needed a tinted moisturiser for the summer. I actually can't believe how GOOD this product is, I would say it's full coverage which is what I was looking for but it doesn't feel heavy on your skin at all!! It is a little pricey but it's definitely worth it! Will 100% be purchasing again.

Nida

Excellent product.

I alternate between this Nars tinted moisturizer In summer/hot weather and the Laura Mercier Oil-free moisturizer in winter. I find that the two of them can be used only with moisturizer beforehand. Nothing more is needed. This gives a ‘your skin but better’, very natural look. May not last all day but so easy to reapply.

Ash

Stunned

This is stuff is made of dreams. Have even swapped out my full coverage foundation that I wear everyday, to this! Leaves the most unbelievable finish on your skin, glowy all day (but not the oily kind)! Absolutely love love!

Angie

Great

Great tinted moisturizer. Especially if you have dry skin.

Naty

Excellent for dry skin

Excellent foundation for dry and thin skin. Invisible on the skin and it's good that it has SPF.

B

Good but not amazing

Left a nice dewy finish if not set, transfers quite easily.

Lucy

Good tinted moisturizer

This is a very good tinted moisturizer. It’s great on holiday when sunbathing and the only let down is that I found it went patchy in the sea, other than that it's a great product.

B

Didn't live up to the hype...

I had heard and read great things about this product but it fell pretty short for me... it went on and looked great for about an hour after which my face started to look oily and the tint really didn't do anything. Maybe if you have the perfect, normal skin with no blemishes then it would be lovely, but for someone with combination skin and a few blemishes, it just didn't do the trick... I’ll still use it and apply it as I’m about to head to the beach (I live in South Africa) but won't be using it for every day like I’d hoped to.

Char

great

Moisturising, nice texture, very sheer coverage. I like it but don't know that it's definitely worth the price tag...

M

Great lightweight

At first I didn't like it at all and it sat in my drawer for a month but I discovered one moment that the problem for me was that I applied it with a beautyblender. I now apply it with a brush and very small amount, just enough to cover my whole face and on top I use the Laura Mercier loose powder. My usually oily T-zone doesn't even get oily with this combo.

Jan

Best Tinted Moisturiser

NARS doesn't disappoint. Light and beautifullu moisturising as well as a good tint. Excellent.

G

Amazing !!

I have such dry skin and this is one of the only foundations I can use. Doesn’t cling to dry patches and it makes my skin look so hydrated and glowy. Will definitely buy again!!

ah77

Best Tinted Moisturiser!

Discovered this after trying Laura Mercier, Bobbi Brown and Erborian.... No comparison. NARS is lighter, more moisturising and has a far more natural look.

H

BEST THING EVER

I don't leave reviews ever but if you're thinking of purchasing this, DO IT! You will not look back. It is weightless, light and feels amazing. Fantastic coverage and it is honestly a MUST BUY! Definitely a replacement if you'd rather not use foundation every day. I am so impressed, it is brilliant!!

Kelly

Love love love

I have dreadful skin. It rejects most moisturisers, let alone foundation. I either get patchy breakouts or my skin dries out completely and gets flaky. Since using this product, my face actually looks normal for the first time in about 20 years. Like the other reviews, the coverage isn't heavy and cakey, but it's enough to minimise flaws and make you look radiant. You can layer it. Doesn't cling to dry areas. It's make up without wearing make up. Colour match isn't bad either. No orange neck lines! Until they change the formula, I won't be buying anything else.

Yasou

Love it!!!

Wow even better than the it cosmetics cc cream I'm in shade Alaska I bought this as i don’t really like foundation it’s perfect and gives an even coverage without being cakey, its a must in your make up bag and has Spf what more do u need!!

Violet

My go-to

I absolutely love this product. It evens out my skintone without looking cakey and it works nicely on my dry skin.

Soph

Love this.

I never really liked foundation because of its heaviness and I could never find a shade that suited my skin tone. I’m in the shade St Moritz and I absolutely love it. It looks so natural on my skin and feels light and helps my skin look more alive. Definitely recommend.

Maja

The best.

I have Alaska, it's perfect! Love Nars shades, they don't look too pink or too yellow or grey. Really hydrating, natural looking, it feels light when applied, not sticky...highly recommend!

Elise56

The best Tinted Moisturiser

I usually wear Nars sheer glow foundation but wanted a tinted moisturiser for everyday wear. This is seriously good, feels so good on my skin and gives me a nice glow. Very happy :)
